Treat material pursuits as tools that support life and spiritual growth—earn enough to reduce anxiety, enjoy beauty, and create freedom—without letting possessions define your worth. Meanwhile, nurture the spirit through daily small practices: gratitude, reflection, meditation, deep relationships, nature, or creative expression.The practical balance point often appears as the “enough” threshold: once basic security and reasonable comfort are met, shift incremental energy toward inner richness rather than endless accumulation.Key signs you’re close to balance:You feel peaceful rather than restless when alone
Possessions bring convenience, not constant craving
Time for meaning feels abundant, not squeezed
Ultimately, the richest life is not the one with the most things, but the one where external achievements and internal peace reinforce each other.https://greatergood.berkeley.edu
